Furthermore, occurrence of colorectal MALT lymphoma is extremely rare. We report a case of a solitary rectal MALT lymphoma treated by surgical resection and radiotherapy. Lymphoma should be considered as a rare differential diagnosis when dealing with large bowel pathology. We would advocate the use of surgery as a primary treatment option for a medically fit patient.

Previous research has not examined the impact of health 'scares' on these predictors.

The initial findings with the adolescents who received this contraceptive at the school were favorable, particularly regarding condom use, parental involvement, and patient acceptance of the contraceptive. This new policy garnered a significant amount of attention, both nationally and locally. It attempts to address problems that have complicated etiologies as well as diverse clinical, social, and ethical ramifications, all complicated by political realities. The Norplant experience offers useful lessons regarding controversial health initiatives that address problems facing public health practitioners today.
